This place is a steal for the price. I travel 6 months a year as a snowbird nomad & typically stay in 4-5 star resorts/hotels, however, will do an occasional lower-budget property when the price & location is right, and this place was great for a few nights. It’s clean, safe and convenient and they allowed my very well behaved dogs at a fraction of what I normally pay. The beach is right across the street, the “night life” is down the road and there’s good dog friendly restaurants in walking distance. I checked the sheets and they were clean- I use my own bedding because my dogs shed but the bed was actually comfy as well. The people that work there are friendly, they just have to deal with a lot of B.S. so yes, they may seem rough at times but I assure you, you would too if you had people paying $40-50 a night & yelling at you because it’s not Hilton quality. There is a small smell that always occurs in highly humid, higher temps properties with high turnover like this, it’s not horrible it’s a motel. The locals that stay there are friendly & from what I saw just trying to have a “staycation” for themselves and their families and it’s the price that allow them that. The AC worked well, the shower pressure was AMAZING, & the drapes kept it dark enough to sleep. My remote wasn’t working well but I was there for the dog friendly beaches and boardwalks so no biggie. If you want a safe quiet space, you can’t hear anything outside of your room besides the occasional train.
